does anyone hce children w/CF & pectus excavatum w/flaring of lower ribs?/Wrinkly feet as well?
I have PE & no CF. Also, my non-CF DS and my non-CF nephew also have PE. The CF child in our family does not have PE. We do not have Marfan's either. It does cause a mild restrictive component with my non-CF DS. He also has asthma so the combo causes his PFTs to always be lower than what we'd like. I don't think PE is related to CF. Good luck. I hope you find answers soon.
